Definitely less could go wrong. Worst case scenario is being stranded with a snapped belt. Throttle response is also more predictable, even if the power isn’t as good.
Another benefit of a turbo is more power at varying altitudes. A supercharger at altitude will achieve less psi at a given pulley size than at sea level, but the turbo will just suffer from more lag, but still hit full boost.
